Despite our two countries differences ya have to admit that Iran is a country that certainly has endured it's share of natural disasters in the form of earthquakes.

Thanks for the sentiment Hamid-Reza Asefi and people of Iran.

In, think it was 1962, Iran suffered a major earthquake. The U.S. sent massive relief in the form of food, hundreds of tents and dozens of pre-fab buildings, medical supplies, water, etc. From the base in Aviano, Italy, we dispatched hundreds of GIs in C-124s and an entire field hospital, with a field water treatment plant and drinking water supply system. The detachment stayed there until the Shah's local government guys could restore order and life support infrastructure.

Maybe their memory has gotten the better of the great Satan syndrome.
